You know, four hour and 12 minute nine-inning games are generally a slog.
This one, the Cubs’ come-from-behind 11-8 win over the Pirates, completing a four-game sweep, was absolutely entertaining. Tons of interesting things happened, but I’ll start with the MLB record that was tied in this game:
This Pirates/Cubs game is the 1st game with 3 grand slams total since April 21, 2015 between the Brewers and Reds
3 ties the single-game combined record https://t.co/jhVS6MlK1Y— Sarah Langs (@SlangsOnSports) September 5, 2021I’ll get back to Schwindel’s slam a bit later.
